TY - JOUR PY - 2005// TI - Victim-centric diversion? The electronic monitoring of domestic violence cases JO - Behavioral sciences and the law A1 - Ibarra, Peter R. A1 - Erez, Edna SP - 259 EP - 276 VL - 23 IS - 2 N2 - This article discusses the electronic monitoring of domestic violence cases as a form of diversion. The data derive from a two and a half year study of two "bilateral" electronic monitoring programs geared towards domestic violence offenders, mostly defendants, and their former or current intimate partners. Analysis consists of an examination of how the programs under study manifest the aims and tensions of diversion, and highlights how a victim-centered approach to diversion can amplify the tensions of diversion.
